Testimonials
“Dr. Kari has been a heaven sent. My back and hip pain has improved substantially with these treatments. I would have not experiencing this improvement without her expertise.”
“After 25+ years of peeing when I laugh, sneeze, run, jump, etc I no longer have that issue. What a game changer!!!! Dr. Kari is amazing!”
“I am a nurse and I work 12 hour shifts. I appreciate that I am not going to the bathroom once and twice an hour anymore, even though I am drinking more water. I will definitely recommend your services to my family, friends and patients.”
Meet the Physical Therapist:
Hi, I’m Dr. Kari Roberts, PT, DPT, a physical therapist who specializes in pelvic health dysfunction for women, and I’ve been in your shoes.
I suffered with chronic pelvic pain for over 5 years that impacted my personal, private and professional life. I understand the frustration of generic answers and standardized care that leaves you feeling hopeless and more alone than when you started. I was initially interested in the pelvic health field as I was dealing with my own pelvic health dysfunction. Now I’m excited to help others stop suffering in silence and gain the tools they need so they can also overcome their pelvic health dysfunction. I opened Marrón Pelvic Health to give you hope and find answers tailored for you.
I earned my Doctor of Physical Therapy degree from University at Buffalo in 2004 and have over 18 years of experience in the orthopedics and geriatrics fields. I have completed additional pelvic health training with Evidence in Motion and am in the process of becoming a Certified Pelvic Health Specialist.
When I’m not working as a physical therapist I enjoy watching sports with my husband, walking in the park with my 2 dogs, listening to podcasts, sampling tasty bourbons, and catching up on reality TV.

FAQs:
All visits are 55 minutes with 1:1 care between you and your pelvic health specialist. You will have a safe and confidential space to share your concerns and receive the specialized treatment you need. At the initial visit, we will review your intake forms, conduct a head-to-toe assessment and create your personalized plan.
What are the visits like?
Can I build better pelvic strength besides Kegels?
Most definitely! It is unfortunate that the greater masses believe doing Kegel's fixes all things related to the pelvic floor. The pelvic floor is just one muscle group needed to support your digestive system, reproductive system, and abdomen. We will do a full body assessment and create a personalized plan to help you reach your goals.
Do I need a referral to start my treatment?
No referral is needed for your initial assessment and to start your care. If you have a physician you are working with, we will ask for that contact information so we can close the communication loop regarding your care.
How long is each session?
Each session is 55 minutes with 1:1 care.
How long does it take to heal?
Each person’s goals are different and each body responds differently. We can’t say how long it will take to heel, but we believe if you follow the plan, you should see some favorable results in about 2 weeks.
